I posted before a different video on "How Monero Works", but this one is on Why, and it uses a fast CDN now. I know some people complained about the speed before.

This video can be sent to some normie friends who won't get off Bitcoin: https://video.simplifiedprivacy.com/why-monero/

Great work, no bandwidth issues for me. I feel this is a simplified "how" still and normies have yet to understand the real "why". Not an easy task I'm sure, but you obviously have the ability and understanding.

Make Cindy go to prison for transacting with Bob, make Bob unable to get a loan for transacting with the "wrong" Alice, get Alice to spend years in courts trying to prove she's not a witch (or an elephant for that matter) and make them all unable to escape buying food with vouchers their government is providing. Find better examples obviously. Keep it up either way!

There is a deeper why, which is why privacy, decentralization, and self-custody to begin with. Perhaps this is another video

Well, you said for the normies, I went full simpleton.
